"I find my boy ill, broken down, shattered it is the usage of this crew of fellows what right have I to conceal it leave other people's sons to be so served?" "I believe they did so to Tom out of ill-will to me," said Norman, "and because they thought he had ratted." "Hush! don't argue against it," said Dr. May, almost petulantly. "I have stood a great deal to oblige you, but I cannot stand this.
"Margaret has ratted she is going to drive out with mamma," said Norman; "as to Etheldred the Unready, I'll run up and hurry her." In a moment he was at her door. "Oh! Norman, come in. Is it time?" "I should think so! You're keeping every one waiting." "Oh, dear! go on; only just tell me the past participle of 'offero', and I'll catch you up." "'Oblatus." "Oh, yes, how stupid.
"Damn the Mess!" said Tommy fiercely. "They'll tell me I ratted to-morrow. I don't care. Let 'em say what they like! It's you that matters. Man, how infernally ill you look!" Monck checked the personal allusion. "I'm not ill. But what have you been up to? Are you in a row?" Tommy essayed a laugh. "No, nothing serious. The blithering idiots ducked me yesterday for being disrespectful, that's all.
And apropos of coffin of stones the analogy was not at all bad as it was in fact a stoning to death on the part of seventytwo out of eighty odd constituencies that ratted at the time of the split and chiefly the belauded peasant class, probably the selfsame evicted tenants he had put in their holdings.
Pitt had very nearly made him; but he ratted always at the wrong time. What an old Silenus it was!" "I might have been Silenus's widow," said Rebecca. "Don't you remember, Miss Briggs, how you peeped in at the door and saw old Sir Pitt on his knees to me?"
To serve in parliament the nation, Sir Ulick read his recantation: At first he joined the patriot throng, But soon perceiving he was wrong, He ratted to the courtier tribe, Bought by a title and a bribe; But how that new found friend to bind, With any oath of any kind, Disturb'd the premier's wary mind. "Upon his faith. Upon his word," Oh! that, my friend, is too absurd. "Upon his honour."
Sir John Cox Hippisley, who had not then ratted, a regular Whig, seconded this amendment, in a speech which I am sure many of those who were present will never forget; it was full of sophistry end cant; and the old cunning fox whined and coaxed his hearers in the most supplicating manner, to support the old magistrates of the county, who, he said, had always been the best friends the farmers ever had, or ever would have; and a great deal more of such trash.
"Which could be quite certain of discovering a toy pistol," said Father Brown with a smile. "But what about the brother who ratted? Hadn't he anything to tell the Prince?" "He always asseverated that he did not know," replied Flambeau; "that this was the one secret his brothers had not told him.
Next morning, at breakfast, Sin Saxon was as beautifully ruffled, ratted, and crimped, as gay, as bewitching, and defiant as ever, seated next Madam Routh, assiduously devoted to her in the little attentions of the meal, in high spirits and favor; even saucily alluding, across the table, to "our howl, Miss Craydocke!" Public opinion was carried by storm; the benison of sleep had laid wrath.
The old vicar here has told me astonishing tales of her how she turned her own sister out-of-doors and never spoke to her afterward because she married a man who ratted to the Liberals, and the wife went with him; how her own husband dreaded her if he ever happened to differ from her politically, and a sort of armed neutrality between her and Coryston was all that could be hoped for at the best of times.
